and Books Music is absolutely an indispensable element in a movie, while the music movie "Let's Create a Shadow with Music" mostly has a tragic tone such as "Dead Poets Society" and "The Pianist at Sea", but it is very tragic. Rarely is there a music movie like "Spring in the Cow Herding Class", which is like a spring's warmth flowing into people's hearts, but the ordinary story gives people an extraordinary touch. The childish voice that day was a song of spring, This is the most unforgettable memory brought to me by "Spring in the Cattle Class".

The film adopts the creative method of flashbacks, and unfolds this ordinary story with Pierre's memories. The background is a school for troubled children in France after World War II. Simple and brutal high pressure, and the children in the rebellious period are also more rebellious to tease teachers in private, just like the name of the school in the movie "The Bottom of the Pond", this is a school like backwater, and the The little boy waiting for his deceased father at the station made the stagnant water even colder. The arrival of the down-and-out musician Matthew was like a stream of clear living water, changing all of this. His understanding of children, tolerance, kindness, and melting The hearts of these troubled children may have been frozen, and the color tone of the film has gradually become full of vitality from the cold at the beginning. In the film, Matthew will gather everyone to sing together, discover the advantages of each child, and discover the greatness of each child. Pierre, who is musically gifted but extremely sensitive and withdrawn, Matthew is always solving various problems of these children, and in the end he succeeded. The theme song of the movie "LES CHORISTES", through these "problems" The children's singing has become so holy and pure, and the sound of the child's voice allows the film to fully integrate the audience into the film. There is no ups and downs in the plot, no dazzling special effects, this seemingly simple and ordinary story , but more than a precious touch.


French movies are actually different from many European and American movies. There is no such thing as deliberately contrived due to the needs of the plot. The romantic and ordinary stories have always been the main tone of French movies. For example, the same cup of Chinese "Kung Fu Tea" is plain with a fragrant aroma. Only when you taste it carefully can you realize the unique charm of its movie. It is true that "Spring in the Cattle Class" is not a love movie, but the warmth of the movie is like an ode to the soul. The medium sends the warmth in the movie into the hearts of every audience, and the movie plot is intricately linked. The main line of the movie is Mr. Matthew and Pierre, a student who grew up in a single-parent family. The love of Matthew and the scenes of the school are in the movie. The stories are interspersed, and everything in the movie seems to be so real. In the movie, Mr. Matthew and his classmates changed from strangers to acquaintances and finally became mutual trusting friends, which opened the heart of every child. Door, this is not an earth-shattering love story, but the theme of love in the movie has been wirelessly amplified in the movie from the most ordinary perspective. The arrival of Matthew is actually the spring of the cattle herding class. The children in the class compose a song of spring together. In the film's ending, when Matthew leaves school, the sky is full of paper airplanes, which makes the audience of this film full of emotion at the end.

The reality is always barren, and it is impossible to meet a teacher like Matthew in life, so the movie is always compiling different dreams for us, an ordinary campus story, a childish voice like the sound of nature, the spring day. Song, this is the most warm and warm dream. (Reprint must indicate: the original author Mengli Poetry Book)
